I'm just curious - What are the actual production costs for StarGate Atlantis? How much does the production team get for one entire season of Atlantis?
Reason I'm asking is because Atlantis has huge potential, and BAMSR showed that. Only problem is that the series has a limited budget, whereas SG-1 had a pretty big budget when it was over on that other channel before it moved to Sci-Fi, hence why the series seemed "bigger" somehow (And don't give me that crap about original stories, sinc that is true to some extent, but it had more to do with money which allowed for bigger props, graphics, more actors etc)
If Joe or anyone else affiliated with StarGate is reading this, isn't it about time that you started a website whereby people can donate to help this fantastic show? I want to see more special effects like that, and more stories like that. I want Atlantis going to Season 6 and beyond. I want more space battles and all that stuff. There's millions of Atlantis fans worldwide, so I'm sure a hell of a lot of them would be willing to give a little to keep this great series on the air. And who knows, it'll probably put StarGate at the forefront of a mini revolution where the public pays directly for what they want to watch, rather than channel execs telling us what we should be watching by cancelling such great shows, and keeping utter crap on our televisions. I'd rather watch Atlantis than crap like Lost
